Re: Max audio voltages

2006-01-10 by Tom Adam

Don't connect to any sort of line-in level device thingie....
I build a very small attenuator (2 jacks, one pot) to go back to line
levels.

I'm not sure if 15Vpk-pk is normal. check resistor values...
I've got a MOTM VCO that gives 10Vpk-pk....

Cheers,
ToAd
